A 12-year-old footballer put his skills to the test when he took part in a training session with Arsenal players.

Oliver Starr, from Edgware, won the chance to visit the Arsenal Training Ground for a special challenge with some of the Gunners’ first team stars.

He teamed up with Bacary Sagna for a blind-folded basketball challenge, in which the pairs had to throw as many footballs through a basketball hoop in 60 seconds.

The keen Arsenal supporter was then given autographs and pictures of Spanish international Nacho Monreal, Emmanuel Frimpong and Lukasz Fabianski.
